Sorry about that, i always type in caps, so i dont even notice anymore.

it is wearing on the insides, i know that the camber is already set agressively, but not to where i will have to buy expensive tires all the time. I am still running my stock advans, and they seem to be extremely soft, so maybe i should get a harder compound tire next time.. . i was just wondering if anybody else had the same observation/problem. i didnt notice till later cause there was no pull, so since you just got an x also, you might want to keep an eye on it.

I'm watching it currently.

Camber is aggressive? What are you dropped on? Does anybody make a camber correction kit yet for the Evo X? I was looking last night and Ingalls doesn't yet.

No problem with mine at all and I have CAMBER too. I am going to say that your Toe may be a bit out.

Walbro's have been know to go out after long drives. Well that may be the ebay knock off one tho. Stock ones should last.

Well I have a great alignment and I run about -2.5* front and -1.5* rear and my tires don't where on the inside at all and I have had this alignment for almost a year now. I do Rotate them regularly and I don't thing mine are as low of a tread rating as stock. Stock Tires are soft and ya you can eat through those one fast with a bad alignment. Actually now that I think about it The Evo X wheels I have from a friend where kind of worn out from him DD his x he only had 4500 miles on them and they are about 50% already

haha dont complain on tires starting to go after a year and a half I had a set go in just over a month once and that was with about 2000 miles on them too

Get your alignment check then man. I will bet you that toe and Camber are both off on that side Have you ever had your alignment done before? You should always have your car aligned at least once a year. I try to check mine Every 4-6 months. I would bet your alignment is off because previous owner hit a curb or something in the winter and didn't think it was bad or anything.

Can someone pull WMWMF33577TT58162 for me? It's a Mini, and I think it is a salvage title based on the price but... I dunno.

I had the same problem and I kept hearing it was normal on evo's. I had mine aligned and the only thing that was out was the camber slightly in the front, less that .1-.2*, the rear was out more and so was the toe but only a tad also.

Thing is though was that the front were wearing faster than the rears and like I just said, the rear was the side that was out the most???? Doesn't make sense. I just bought new tires so we'll see how the inside begins to wear with the recent alignment.
